This episode dives into the story behind five essential Industrial Albums from 1988 and 1990 you NEED in your collection. This video is the first in a series on the genre Industrial I'm planning, discussing the albums and as a proud member of the Vinyl Community, showing off and unboxing my Vinyl! Let's go!

Streetcleaner definitely leans more into the metal side than industrial.

For me, it's both an industrial and metal album.

I know "what is industrial?" gets debated a lot, and while the instrumentation on Streetcleaner is very standard for a metal band (give or take the drum machine), I think the production, structure and composition lean heavily towards industrial. I can hear a lot of similarity to Test Dept. or SPK in it.
